The thread title is most certainly wrong. The proposal was made by a random person and has no weight (at the moment). It is too early to jump to any kind of conclusions until major pools voice their opinions here.

It looks like the Chinese mining cartel are now trying pull the strings.  
No. What prevents me from creating accounts on that website and posting my "support" for this plan? Support 'via comments' can be easily faked on that website (correct me if I'm wrong).

Urge all miners to unite to support the Terminator Plan - ( i think it implies to terminate Core's 0.13.1 which doesn't honor HK consensus).
That was never part of 'HK consensus'. The individuals there said that they would deliver a proposal, not that it would be merged into Core (they can't do that on their own anyways).

It is very likely a decent amount of Devs will walk off if they do this.
That's understandable considering that something like this would practically be a stab in the back. This is way too risky for a change that only ups the throughput from ~3 TPS to 6 TPS.
